Pros

Good values, decent pay, focused on family mainly. Good hours for retail. Still doing well in an environment that is suffering.

Cons

Health benefits lacking a little, very little training. old school lack of technology. Don't try to transfer because it is like trying to get a new job.

Pros

Best company overall I have ever worked for. Sundays off. Hours are great.

Cons

No Scan based trading system at all, we may as well use calculators. The lack of an inventory control system makes it much harder than necessary to account for loss. Little continuity in communication from district and up

Pros

Decent pay......nice vacation pay, that is all that is good about this company!!

Cons

stay late all the time so don't be fooled that you get off at 8! No pay roll in our low volume store so skeletal crews especially on the weekend. Expectations are way too high for such a small crew. Upper management is never satisfied with anything you do. They def are not family oriented nor do they act Christian at all. They are slave drivers of today!! I have seen employees be forced to come back into work directly from leaving a funeral! Ridic!!! Your job is always being threatened by upper management yet they won't give enough payroll so you can have enough employees to run the store. You will run yourself crazy from the register and back because they don't hire many cashiers. You will have 5 jobs in 7 different areas to do on each shift. Buckle up for a bumpy ride here!! Unless you want to eat, sleep and breathe hobby lobby and have no time or energy for homelife, I suggest to steer clear of this overpriced shady company! They showed racism and favoritism in our location as well!
